Ever get an earworm out of nowhere, of a song you haven't hard for years and years? Today, for me, it was Alvin and The Chipmunks' cover of "Call Me" at half speed. soundcloud.com/alvin-thechi...

Went out for drinks with comrades after a very successful DSA meeting last night. Starting to understand why people get really into this whole political organizing thing, it's really satisfying to bring people together and do stuff!

Didn't really catch a lot of election results tonight, because I was sitting through a city council meeting waiting to make my three minute comment on my town's trans sanctuary city resolution. Worth it.

There's something telling about how the left's most hated public figures for "war crimes" are men who had no legal authority to order the things they are accused of masterminding. Criticism of Bush and Nixon isn't exactly uncommon, but it's rarely as vituperative.

So my house almost burned down. It's not destroyed but it is definitely uninhabitable. If you can donate you'll have my everlasting gratitude, if not I don't blame you in this economy. Pics and QR code to follow.

Watched The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie last night. Brilliant movie, but my fundamental takeaway was that I should really get myself some round, tortoiseshell glasses.

I've always wanted to build one of these... With modern linear vibrators and IMUs I bet it could be completely unobtrusive and have multi-day battery life.
There was a study years ago that gave people a belt that always vibrated in the direction of north. People pretty quickly stopped feeling it, but reported having vastly improved spatial perception. It's amazing how quickly we can incorporate a new sense.

Kinda surprised how quickly the vibe here turned against Plattner. Was kinda expecting a lot of "well perhaps he's a sincere convert" "no one is more radical than veterans" "at least he fights" kind of stuff from the left. Maybe just not enough people had formed an emotional attachment to him.

The most fun stage of this I experienced was the weird egg cracking prodrome when I was planning for my transition without directly thinking about it, like "Ok, once I have some savings here I'll look for a job in the city and try to make some new, queer friends and then [REDACTED]."

I'm not worried about the rich and powerful manufacturing consent, that always happens to some degree. I'm worried that the consent machine is broken and we're in a world where mass persuasion and democratic decisionmaking simply don't exist anymore.

In a very "there were no signs" moment, a cousin of mine went and married a dyke and pretty much my first reaction upon meeting them was "oh no I want to look like that."
The problem with this genre of comparison photos for me is that I had adopted the dykey haircut far in advance of the realization of why I liked it. It mutes the distinction quite a bit.

The backstory of this post is that we were at the bar and wanted to get these photos to @calliecat.bsky.social (Pictured, left) but I didn't realize blueksy had implemented DMs so my "solution" was just to pin them to my profile. Thanks Callie for giving me an excuse to burn the boats!

It's now been a year since I started estrogen and it's felt like the longest year of my life. Everything is new and different and exhausting and way more satisfying. I get to feel close to people in ways that I never thought possible.

Did you ever have a substitute teacher who completely lost control of the class? I mean a total collapse, where no one respected or even feared them anymore, and the only things steering class behavior were the collective whims of the students? That feeling of electricity and fear, that's bluesky.

The whole Porpentine femboy thing has a weird inverted synchronicity in it for me because the first bit of transfem drama I remember was Christine Love saying something about just being a normal woman with a minor birth defect.

I sometimes think that if gamergate had held off for another year or two I might have made a twine game or two and figured out my gender almost a decade early.
